Formwork and scaffolding solutions provider PERI South Africa is standing tall with its long-standing involvement in The Leonardo project, not only destined to be the tallest building in Sandton, but possibly the new record holder for the tallest building in Africa. </div>
</div>
</div>
<p>The Leonardo, cousin to the Legacy Group’s Michelangelo and Da Vinci buildings, will ultimately be the tallest building in Sandton, having been boosted from an original 47 to 55 storeys due to demand, with an anticipated final height in excess of 223 m upon its completion in 2019. It is fitting that PERI, the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding, has been involved with this iconic project since 2015.</p><p>“The challenges have been many and varied – and we have enjoyed rising to every one of them. When the Legacy Group awarded our long-time client Aveng Grinaker-LTA the contract to build The Leonardo, we were awarded the basement levels initially, with the top structure to follow,” PERI Lead Engineer: Key and Strategic Projects <strong>Sebastian Burwitz</strong> explains.</p><p>While PERI South Africa has collaborated with Aveng Grinaker-LTA on a number of flagship projects, including the recently-completed Sasol headquarters, The Leonardo is the largest project to date for both companies.</p><p>The basement development alone included pouring and placing a total of 17 500 m³ of reinforced concrete, 1 380 tonnes of reinforcing steel, 40 000 m² of formwork, and the laying of 350 000 stock bricks, together with 8 000 m² of plaster, and 2 000 m² of screed.<span style="text-decoration:underline;"></span></p><p>In planning the basement slabs, PERI incorporated and supplemented Aveng Grinaker-LTA’s own stock of SKYDECK, its panelised slab formwork system, into the formwork layouts. Together with PERI’s MULTIFLEX, used in adjacent slab areas, the required slab loadings could be carried in the most efficient manner.</p><p>For the standard gang-formed vertical applications, PERI’s TRIO wall formwork system was used by Aveng Grinaker-LTA, with supplementary stock supplied by PERI to site. PERI’s manhandled DOMINO system was used to eliminate dependency on crane time for the internal walls and beam sides.</p><p>“PERI was able to use its innovative DUO system with polymer technology, also characterised by its low weight and extremely simple handling,” Burwitz adds, noting that the feedback to date has been very positive. “Aveng Grinaker-LTA has subsequently deployed DUO project-wide for ancillary works such as some water tanks and smaller retaining walls, where the system has really come into its own.”</p><p>The main focus for PERI was the gigantic core. Consisting of over 1 000 m<sup>2</sup> of core walls, this is the centrepiece of Sandton’s tallest building. The core and slabwork have been staggered on purpose to allow for efficient access to shafts from slab level, and to maximise cranage advantage.</p><p>As a mixed-use development, The Leonardo will offer luxury residential apartments and penthouse suites, together with more than 15 000 m² of premium office space. It includes a business and conference centre, a gym and spa, restaurants, and recreational and lifestyle zones.<span style="text-decoration:underline;"></span></p><p> “We have been on-site since Q4 2015, commencing with the supplementary supply of PERI-owned materials that our client had in its yard.” Burwitz highlights that the main engineering goal was to complete the core design within budget and time constraints, as per the programme specified by the client. “Getting our heads around the sheer size and scope of the project was an important initial mental step,” he notes.</p><p>The 11-m-high key feature walls posed a particular challenge in that the patterns specified had to meet strict quality and design criteria. It was decided to cast these walls on-site as single elements, with close collaboration with suppliers in terms of the concrete mix required, the use of external vibrators to settle the concrete inside the form, and then the unusual feat of pumping concrete from the bottom-up firstly, and later from the top down. Here the correct sequencing was vital.</p><p>Extra attention had to be paid to health and safety in terms of the extreme height of the building, especially in terms of wind speed and pressure analysis for working at such heights. Here PERI provided dedicated training on its Rail Climbing System – Carriage (RCS-C) heavy-duty system. This training extended to toolbox talks with all foremen to ensure that they not only understood how the system worked, but how best to use it to speed up construction and ensure maximum quality.</p><p>PERI’s ongoing involvement with the development of the ‘New Sandton’ has seen the formwork and scaffolding solutions provider involved with 60% to 70% of all the major buildings in the premier business precinct since 2015, from full supply to specialised items.</p><p>“The combination of our products, customer relationships, and engineering expertise and solutions, as well as our important international engineering back-up when required, makes PERI a ‘go-to’ supplier,” Burwitz concludes.</p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">PERI project team</span></strong></p><p><strong>Project technical support</strong>: William Ndou</p><p><strong>Formwork concept and design</strong>: Chris Heesen, Sebastian Burwitz, and Stephen Sprong</p><p><strong>Commercial</strong>: Billy van Straaten</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.

A requirement for smooth off-shutter concrete work at the arched gatehouse to ICT group Yekani Manufacturing’s new R1 billion factory in the East London Industrial Development Zone saw main contractor WBHO turn to PERI South Africa to provide a complete architectural solution. </div>
</div>
</div>
<p>The leading formwork and scaffolding provider has a proven track record in small to large projects across a range of sectors, from industrial to residential. It is also well-known for providing complete solutions to realise challenging architectural features, such as the arched gatehouse at Yekani Manufacturing, and hence has a commanding presence in the Eastern Cape region.</p><p>“Our long-standing relationship with WBHO as a client resulted in us being called in initially to discuss the concept and potential solution, which was a meeting that included all major stakeholders,” PERI Sales Manager <strong>Wayne Truter</strong> explains. “The architect sought a particular patterned look that required off-shutter concrete work, for which we were able to provide an ideal solution that was ultimately accepted by the client.”</p><p>The project commenced a year-and-a-half ago, and was finally completed end August this year. In addition to Truter, the PERI team comprised Sales Engineer <strong>Rob Roberts</strong>, and VARIO and Yard Manager <strong>Ted van Rensburg</strong>. <strong>Italo Flavio</strong> from formwork sub-contractor Flavio &amp; Litchfield Construction commented that the company had received exemplary support and service from the PERI team throughout the project duration.</p><p>“The PERI team always made itself available. We could go to the East London office at any time, and see the VARIO elements being designed in the workshop, while there were always representatives on-site as well.” Flavio adds that PERI was the only formwork provider in East London with the technical capability and necessary back-up to execute a project of this complexity.</p><p>The unique feature of the gatehouse arch was the portholes in the concrete face. Another major challenge was the sheer size of the structure itself, with the arched and sloping walls being 10 m long and 7 m high. The actual feature brow was 25 m long, while the largest wall was 230 m<sup>2</sup>.</p><p>PERI’s VARIO GT 24 girder wall formwork proved an ideal solution for all of the boxouts required, which ranged from blank boxouts to window boxouts and wall openings. “We completed a layout, and then submitted it to the architect for additional features to be added for approval, whereupon we determined all the elements that were required on-site. It was critical that all of the components lined-up perfectly, in accordance with the overall design, which meant that quality control and technical assistance were key,” Van Rensburg highlights.</p><p>Another major advantage of the complete solution offered by PERI was its highly cost-competitive pricing, in addition to the time-saving and guaranteed workmanship. In addition, being involved upfront in the early construction sequencing and handling meant that all the VARIO panels required could be built in advance, and then simply transported to site for efficient assembly.</p><p>PERI MULTIFLEX decks were used in conjunction with the VARIO GT 24 girder wall formwork, as well as lightweight DOMINO panel formwork for other walls. Van Rensburg stresses that a key factor to the successful completion of the project was the support offered by PERI, both on- and off-site. “This extended well beyond basic site support. Where there were any difficulties whatsoever, we assisted personally.”</p><p>Truter concludes: “The fact that we were able to devise a solution upfront for the particular architectural features required translated into significant time- and cost-savings for the client. It was a challenging project, not only because the wall was at such a steep angle, which meant we had such high boards on the tie systems, but that we had to be flexible enough to cater for the architect’s input, and ultimately ensure an aesthetically-pleasing, high-quality end result.”</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Connect with PERI South Africa on Social Media to receive the company’s latest news<br /> Facebook</strong>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/">https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/</a> <strong><br /> LinkedIn</strong>: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/</a></p><p><strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica">https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica</a></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="http://media.ngage.co.za/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.

<p>PERI South Africa’s value proposition of service and customer benefit continues to give it the leading edge in the local market. Known for its technical excellence, the formwork and scaffolding supplier has been involved with many of the most iconic projects in the redevelopment of the Sandton central business district, including Katherine Towers, The Leonardo, and 92 Rivonia Road, among others.</p><p>“We aim to be a preferred partner for our construction clients,” PERI South Africa MD <strong>Nicholas Cruickshank</strong> comments. He adds that the PERI brand is well-known and respected in the construction industry, in particular for its focus on technical excellence, which makes it ideal for the largescale and complex projects in Sandton, for example.</p><p>“Our technical capability has definitely given us a leading edge in the market, with the result that we are often the first choice for these projects. The next step is for us to build on this reputation by ensuring our customers are aware of the complete solutions we offer, from design through to site supervision and even project implementation,” Cruickshank explains.</p><p>What this means is an inherent flexibility and agility in order to best respond to client requirements, from small to mega projects. “This flexibility is integral to PERI globally, which invests substantially in cutting-edge research and development to guarantee that our product range meets all possible client requirements.”</p><p>Cruickshank stresses that early involvement with clients and their projects is critical in order to ensure a best-fit solution. “We are not only a formwork and scaffolding supplier, but an active participant in the construction process itself, as we can optimise methodologies and even refine our clients’ objectives upfront. This is largely why we have maintained a position as a market leader.”</p><p>An important part of this close client contact is the extensive technical and aftermarket support that PERI South Africa provides. “Our capability to offer on-site support and service definitely places us at the higher end of the aftermarket spectrum. It is important for our clients to understand that, when they engage with us as a company, we are onboard as a complete solutions provider,” Cruickshank adds.</p><p>PERI South Africa offers its clients both sales and rental options, tailored to meet their specific objectives. “Our customers continue to benefit from owning PERI equipment, giving them access to readily available hi-tech solutions, with back-up as required. The construction market is severely depressed; hence we offer our customers improved efficiencies and lower production costs, helping to protect their margins,” Cruickshank points out.</p><p>PERI South Africa also has a fully-fledged training centre in Centurion, with the ultimate aim of being able to offer industry-accredited training courses. “We have an internal skills development programme in place, as well as offering training to our clients. Our goal is to make Centurion the training hub for the entire Africa and Middle East region,” Cruickshank reveals.</p><p>If there is one word that best encapsulates the ethos of PERI globally, Cruickshank says it is innovation. “We were the first formwork and scaffolding supplier to adopt Building Information Modelling (BIM) on a major project in South Africa. We take our position as an industry leader very seriously, and strive continuously to be at the cutting-edge of technology and trends. This also means that our partnerships with our clients are far more effective and far-reaching at the end of the day, due to our access to our global expertise and experience.”</p><p>Commenting on growth opportunities at present, Cruickshank notes that infrastructure development is a vital catalyst, but that government spend in this critical area remains muted. “It is a very challenging environment for all stakeholders at present in terms of maintaining a healthy growth rate.”</p><p>Cruickshank concludes that PERI South Africa adds the vital ingredient of engineering to its scaffolding and formwork solutions. “A single point of contact is a major benefit for our clients, particularly on the more technically-challenging projects, which is an area where we continue to raise the bar. Not only do we supply the best possible solutions, but we ensure that these are optimised and integrated so as to deliver a successful project every time.”</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Connect with PERI South Africa on Social Media to receive the company’s latest news<br /> Facebook</strong>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/">https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/</a> <strong><br /> LinkedIn</strong>: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/</a></p><p><strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica">https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica</a></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="http://media.ngage.co.za/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.

Aesthetically-pleasing architectural shapes are particularly difficult to cast. This requires a close collaboration between the formwork supplier, architect, engineer, and contractor in terms of devising the most optimal and cost-effective engineering solution. </div>
</div>
</div>
<p>The main challenge with difficult architectural shapes is not only how to form them quickly and cost-effectively, but also how to maintain the necessary consistency during construction, PERI South Africa Technical Manager <strong>Riaan Brits</strong> and Senior Project Engineer <strong>Andrew Rowe </strong>explain. It is for this reason that PERI has developed innovative solutions such as RUNDFLEX, its flagship product for circular and curved formwork.</p><p>RUNDFLEX consists of pre-assembled standard panels for curved walls that can be adjusted to suit the required radius, with no modification work on the panel. Further advantages include less installation effort due to the pre-assembled units.</p><p>Adjustment is quick and easy by means of a template and spindles with self-cleaning hexagonal threads. In addition, the flexible adjustment of wall internal radii of 1 m and larger means that RUNDLFEX is a highly variable solution for a range of architectural requirements and features.</p><p>The pre-assembled panels allow for a maximum permissible fresh concrete pressure of 60 kN/m². Six panel heights are available (0.60 m, 1.20 m, 1.80 m, 2.40 m, 3.00 m, and 3.60 m) and three panel widths (external: 2.50 m, 1.28 m, and 0.85 m).</p><p>Panel connections and compensations up to 10 cm are possible with the BFD alignment coupler. Other features are-determined tie points, horizontal extensions up to 7.80 m panel heights, and the availability of components for working and concreting scaffolding, as well as for providing support.</p><p>WBHO Construction selected RUNDFLEX when it was appointed in 2015 to transform the derelict Silo Building at the Victoria &amp; Alfred Waterfront in Cape Town into the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa.</p><p>Here the main construction challenge for the formwork supplier was the fact that the existing silos had to be resleeved with a 350-mm-thick concrete layer, to a very small radius of under 2.5 m, with an average silo height of 33 m. The concrete sleeving also had to incorporate various splays<strong>.</strong></p><p>RUNDFLEX was ideal for the continuous adjustment of the tight inner radii needed as the silo resleeving progressed vertically. This had to be carried out in conjunction with an integrated PERI BR platform system to allow for the safe installation of the RUNDFLEX panels by crane. Each silo was built up in 2.5 m high vertical forming sections.</p><p>The day after each circular wall section was cast, the RUNDFLEX system was removed from the silo in question, and placed on a cleaning deck, where the formwork was cleaned and serviced prior to it being deployed again.</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Connect with PERI South Africa on Social Media to receive the company’s latest news<br /> Facebook</strong>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/">https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/</a> <strong><br /> LinkedIn</strong>: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/</a></p><p><strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica">https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica</a></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.

The construction industry is in need of change so as to boost productivity, minimise project overruns, and reduce rework due to lagging or slow information flow. As a supplier of a key service to main and sub-contractors, the formwork sector is well-positioned to assist with achieving such savings and improved production levels by leveraging the advantages that Building Information Modelling (BIM) can offer. </div>
</div>
</div>
<p>In this environment, formwork systems lend themselves well to be presented as 3D models within a 3D space. This is why PERI South Africa is paving the way to collaborate with architects and engineers in the initial design phase of a project to guarantee the most cost-effective and practical solutions for clients. It has launched BIM as part of its service offering over the last 18 months. “We are trying hard to promote it,” <strong>Riaan Brits</strong>, engineering director for Sub-Saharan Africa, comments.</p><p>“We are also in the process of educating our clients to deploy BIM as a risk-mitigation factor, as well as a tool to have the relevant information on hand in terms of a digital device such as a tablet, and thus improving the way that contractors install temporary works,” Brits explains.</p><p>“Therefore, in that sense we are very active in the construction space. We do, however, currently advise architects and engineers when they design buildings about constructability. For example, we could advise a construction company about how to build a lift shaft optimally by ensuring that they construct it better. This is one of the key advantages that the industry can look forward to when it engages with us,” Brits comments.</p><p>Everybody within the construction value chain can benefit from adopting the BIM process. “However, people are unsure what the technology is, and what value it can add. Property owners are without doubt the biggest stakeholder, because they receive the real value benefits from actually utilising this integrated system.”</p><p>BIM opens up communication lines, and minimises the potential of mistakes. The entire team can work on an integrated model, which enables them to be involved in the upfront planning and execution of a project.</p><p>“This means that we can supply a better-suited design, especially in terms of constructability, for a project. Therefore, early engagement with the key players in a project will result in in a far more cost-efficient building process, and throughout the building’s lifecycle,” Brits elaborates.</p><p>All stakeholders receive clear communication, real-time access to data and information, and query assistance. The communication process is directed to the relevant person working on a project, as opposed to a general communications assistant.</p><p>The openness of the communication, and the increased usability of the information, is therefore a major advantage. The project information is accessible from a digital device from within a 3D space, which makes it easily accessible, as well as enhancing the level and detail of information provided throughout this process.</p><p>An important part of PERI South Africa’s current focus and strategy is to educate the South African construction industry about the benefits of adopting BIM upfront. “People are unsure what BIM is, with some believing it is 3D modelling, while others think it is the automation of the inspection list on-site. Some even believe it is some type of magical tool that is going to alleviate problems.</p><p>“I think that the general misconception is the level of information and data, and the integration of the data that can be gathered from the system. It requires the buy-in of all parties involved in the process,” Brits argues.</p><p>A common misconception is to regard BIM as standalone software. Instead, it integrates all construction processes, from planning to supply, allowing the entire team to work on a model in real-time, which can be changed, adapted, and managed easily.</p><p>“This is not majorly different from how systems are working currently, but now with BIM they are integrated into a central point, where everyone is working on a live model. Therefore, for example, if an architect’s calculations change, the end supplier will be able to see this, and can adapt what needs to be supplied in accordance with the new calculations,” Brits points out.</p><p>“PERI South Africa is already doing quite a lot in this regard. I think it is important for us to focus on high-risk factor projects where safety on-site and execution of that is the ultimate goal. BIM needs to be promoted to architects and engineers, as well as end users and property owners, so they really comprehend its impact on the entire value chain, from cost-savings to constructability and safety,” Brits stresses.</p><p>Traditionally, architects are approached to design a new structure to guidelines specified by the client. The design work is verified by an engineer, whereafter the development is put out to tender. Contractors tender according to their best cost estimates, and only at this stage of the process is PERI South Africa consulted.</p><p>By now the project has been awarded and construction has commenced. “Only then do we begin to get a sense of what the architect and engineer intended, and therefore a number of issues can get overlooked as a result, especially as some items are so expensive to construct,” Brits highlights.</p><p>However, BIM allows key suppliers to engage early on with the architects, or even the clients themselves. This allows PERI South Africa to guide and advance the constructability, as well as the on-site processes themselves.</p><p>Therefore, the moment a project is realised, and all parties are on board, everybody involved from the early design phase has the knowledge upfront on how things are to be constructed on-site. This allows for a genuine full-spectrum service that is to the benefit of all stakeholders.</p><p>The level of integration of BIM in the South African construction industry still has a long way to go, however. State-owned enterprises in Europe and Australia, for example, have put processes in place whereby Level 2 BIM adoption is becoming standard practice. This ensures that these entities obtain all the information necessary, including how to maintain the building once it has been completed, and the location of every element installed.</p><p>Therefore, owners have a fully-integrated model, from which they can manage and facilitate a building going forward. “Major car manufacturers are already adopting the BIM process, and are realising the benefits of this. The construction industry as a whole requires a major mindshift in terms of realising that there can be significant time- and cost-savings by adopting the BIM process,” Brits concludes.</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Connect with PERI South Africa on Social Media to receive the company’s latest news<br /> Facebook</strong>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/">https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/</a> <strong><br /> LinkedIn</strong>: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/</a></p><p><strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica">https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica</a></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.

The complex core geometry at the Katherine Towers project in Sandton saw PERI South Africa deploy its RCS-CL (Rail Climbing System Carriage Light) to reduce crane time and maximise platform sizes for the complex core geometry. </div>
</div>
</div>
<p>The project was designed by architecture and interior architecture group Paragon, with Trencon Construction as the main contractor, and Sotiralis Consulting as the consulting engineer. The complex multi-cell core structure boasts an architectural scenic shaft opening up in the centre of the building. Here PERI VARIO GT24 wall formwork was used to achieve the necessary quality of the concrete surface finish.</p><p>PERI South Africa supplied a complete solution for the flagship project, encompassing design and site supervision and transport, in addition to a range of products and systems to realise the intricately-designed structure.</p><p>Located at 46 Katherine Street in Wierda Valley, Sandton, the 21 000 m<sup>2</sup> project is being developed by Alchemy as the new Bidvest head office, and is a key element of the new Katherine Street mixed-use precinct. The premium-grade development is within walking distance of both Sandton City and the Sandton Gautrain Station.</p><p>It will also offer an additional 12 600 m² of office space for prospective tenants. With expansive views of its surroundings, Katherine Towers is set to become a prominent landmark in the ongoing redevelopment of the Sandton CBD, in which both PERI South Africa and Paragon have played a leading role.</p><p>The PERI South Africa team on the project consists of technical representatives <strong>Stephen Sprong</strong> and <strong>Sebastian Burwitz</strong>, site supervisor and also project engineer <strong>Terry Spronk</strong>, and sales representatives <strong>Jay Fourie</strong> and <strong>James Frew</strong>. Spronk explains that his on-site presence is mainly to offer support to the contractor in terms of the PERI systems deployed on the project.</p><p>These include the PERI SKYDECK and MULTIFLEX slab systems, selected due to the faster slab cycles achievable, a critical factor in this fast-track project, which aims to top-out by August. The balcony slab construction required complex back-propping, including the support of 6.5-m-high feature concrete walls.</p><p>These were realised using specialised QUICKSHORE shoring tower up to 10 m high, as well as a combination of GT24 GIRDERS and SRZ walers. PERI TRIO and DOMINO were deployed for the various retaining walls and upstand beams, which are repeated as a main feature throughout the building.</p><p>The climbing systems used, in conjunction with the VARIO GT24 wall formwork, consisted of specialised SRU, CB 240, and BR platforms, and an additional RCS-CL. “The RCS-CL has been developed specifically for cores in medium-height buildings leading with limited crane capacities and hook times,” Spronk points out.</p><p>Rail-guided climbing ensures that the climbing unit is connected securely to the building at all times, which makes the climbing procedure fast and safe, even in windy conditions. The units are moved by crane, or by means of mobile climbing hydraulics.</p><p>“The main benefit of the RCS-CL system is that there are reduced crane requirements for the core, a particular advantage on a highly-constrained site, which also freed up time for related construction activities,” Spronk comments. Other benefits offered by the PERI solution was reduced plywood wastage in the typical flat slab areas, due to the SKYDECK system allowing productivity to be accelerated to meet the demanding 12-day cycle time.</p><p>“Our main challenges on this project have been limited cranes, site space, and laydown areas. In addition, there was a specific requirement for concrete work with a high degree of accuracy, with an ultra-smooth finish on all vertical structural elements,” Sprong highlights.</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Connect with PERI South Africa on Social Media to receive the company’s latest news<br /> Facebook</strong>: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/">https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/</a> <strong><br /> LinkedIn</strong>: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/</a></p><p><strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica">https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica</a></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.

PERI South Africa’s use of an interactive 3D model allowed main contractor WBHO to come to grips with the striking ‘feature brows’ at the 92 Rivonia Road mixed-use development in Sandton, Johannesburg. </div>
</div>
</div>
<p>The main challenges posed by the project were varied floor heights, and a façade that integrated steel, glass, aluminium, and concrete elements. The 1.8-m-wide and 300-mm-deep ‘feature brow’ along Pybus Road was a suspended off-slab edge with a 33° column-line angle.</p><p>It extends from the 2<sup>nd</sup> to the 6<sup>th</sup> floor, returning at the 6<sup>th</sup> to the 9<sup>th</sup> floor. In addition, a ‘small brow’ along Rivonia Road is a cantilever feature from the 2<sup>nd</sup> to the 4<sup>th</sup> floor, protruding from the slab edge at a 40° angle, and returning into the horizontal slab on the 4<sup>th</sup> floor.</p><p>The main contractor was WBHO, which has collaborated with PERI South Africa on a range of iconic projects, from the new Discovery Campus head office to Alice Lane 3, both in Sandton. Other professional team members on 92 Rivonia Road were DBM Architects, L&amp;S Consulting as structural engineer, and Cadcon as specialist steel fabricator.</p><p>“Basically, we were involved from the tender stage,” Lead Engineer: Key and Strategic Projects <strong>Sebastian Burwitz</strong> points out. This is because WBHO already had an extensive selection of PERI equipment in their yard, which was then supplemented with regards to project requirements.</p><p>The individual components are lightweight, with the panels and main beams weighing only 15.5 kg respectively. This allows for a systematic assembly sequence whereby the size of the panel dictates the prop position, with only 0.29 props required per square metre of slab formwork.</p><p>PERI South Africa’s scope of work focused on all of the horizontal concrete elements, such as the two feature brows, which had to be integrated seamlessly with all of the steel, aluminium, and glass elements. “In terms of our specific relationship with WBHO, we are responsible for most of the project designs where our equipment is utilised,” Sales Representative <strong>Andries Ysel</strong> stresses.</p><p>In the end, the 3D model was the only way to visualise, and resolve, the full complexity of the feature brows. “It enabled us to develop the best solution for the client in a virtual space. It is also an integral part of the added value we are able to bring to an iconic project such as this.</p><p>“There is a major trend towards Building Information Modelling (BIM), which transforms a 3D model into a ‘smart’ design that can be linked to checklists and even animations. The client now has access to such interactivity on-site through any smart device, and can flag any problems or issues for our experts to attend to, or to provide any technical assistance required. This is definitely the next level that the construction industry is moving towards,” Ysel concludes.</p><p><strong><em>Ends</em></strong></p><p><strong>Connect with PERI South Africa on Social Media to receive the company’s latest news<br /></strong>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/">https://www.facebook.com/PERI.Southafrica/</a> <strong><br /></strong>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/peri/</a></p><p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica">https://twitter.com/PERIsouthafrica</a></p><p><strong>Notes to the Editor<br /></strong>To download hi-res images for this release, please visit <a href="/">http://media.ngage.co.za</a> and click the PERI South Africa link to view the company’s press office.</p><p><strong>About PERI South Africa</strong><br /> Established in 1969, PERI is the world’s largest manufacturer of formwork and scaffolding.
